Hi all,

The very tough week has finally ended. Phew. Work was crazy today. I think everyone is trying to get all this work out before Thanksgiving. Though I feel productive and good about what I accomplished.

I'm trying to not dwell on the things that are out of my control (like other's feelings and actions) and give myself a break on this. I can't fix every problem out there.

I'm also trying to focus more on SELF-CARE. Put on my own oxygen mask before I can be of help to others. With the self-care, here's my updated list:

1. exercise (run or yoga) 6 out of 7 days each week
2. do brain exercises (lumosity.com) every day
3. write in journal every day
4. drink lots of water
5. sleep at least 7 hours (if not more every night)

This is simple stuff, but stuff I need to do and haven't been doing. Tonight I got on the treadmill for the first time in weeks. I blasted the tunes and I feel wonderful. Exercise is one of the main things that has been missing from my life! Now I see that again. Already finished my brain puzzles, now about to journal and drink water. I hope everyone is doing well! I believe I'm on Day 5.
